Greetings from CA

    Hi folks. I've been SCUBA diving for about 4 or 5 years now but have had an interest in freediving for at least as long. I live and dive in northern CA. None of my dive buddies are into freediving but I'm ready to take a serious interest. Eventually I'd like to learn to spearfish once I've become comfortable with freediving. So I'd like to hang out on the forum for a while and see what's going on and what you experienced folks have to say.


    Thanks,
    Mark.

    Welcome and THANK YOU for your service mate,:thumbsup2:
    There's a lot of good freedive clubs up there, what is the general area you will be diving?
    Cheers, Don Paul

    Thanks for the comment, DP. My pleasure.
    So far my diving has been mostly variuos beach dives in the Monterey, CA area. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's a great place. Otherwise I've done a little elsewhere vacationing but I live fairly near the Monterey area. Though I'd like to get down to So Cal area, too. I know that there's plenty of freediving going on in CA, I'm just not in that loop yet, which makes it a little hard to get started. In due time, though.

    howdy Mark,
    welcome, you have come to the right place to learn and have great discussions. We are all friendly here, mostly cos we're pretty much all friends:)

    ...and I agree with Don Paul, thanks for your service :)

    Dan,


    Things are fixing to go to shit now that you've let a Jarhead in. They just come in and either blow it up, shoot it up or knock it up and leave. ;)


    Ya know if you were to put a Marine in a padded room with just two ball bearings , in an hour he'd have broken one and lost the other. It's true.I've seen it.:)


    Welcome to the gang, Mark. A little inter-service rivalry there. Maritime Expeditionary Security Det. 132 outta San Diego,USN (R). 14 down, 6 more to go.

    Aaron,
    LOl. Hey, a Squid on a dive forum, go figure. Nah, just messin' with ya. Nice to see you here. :attack2: I'll try to keep the shooting and blowing up to a bare minimum.:attack2: Regarding knocking it up, well I can't make any promises.:blowup:
